I am based in Canada and sell on eBay.ca When I sell to an American buyer, eBay collects the state sales tax. I have noticed that then eBay will charge me fees on the US sales tax collected as well even though I have nothing to do with that. That is totally unfair. Can somebody explain why eBay does this. Thanks

Taxes are a suck all the way. Ebay fees is jeopardy also. When you sell an article even if it's in USA the buyer pays taxes (collect by Ebay) on his purshase. On their side, Ebay charge fees on total and final sell including taxes (paying by buyer) + shipping cost. For the seller he repaid taxes on Ebay fees + Taxes on shipping cost when he goes to Canada Post. So that's taxes over taxes. The seller is penalize because the buyer knows he should pay taxes at the end and then bid less on article.
For Ebay, when he took over the seller account (without permission) against PAYPAL we should normally had received a discount for this getting out intermediate player (PAYPAL). But Zip.....Ebay filled up the hole leaving by PAYPAL .
